Table 1. Reproduction (r) and mortality values due to infection (μinf) for saprotrophic pathogens Flavobacterium columnare and Serratia marcescens and some of their hosts based on experimental studies.
Pathogen | rP | Host | μinf | rS |
F. columnare | 2.4–7.2 day−1 [39] | Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar | 0.2–0.3 day−1 [50] | 0.2–1.7 day−1 [52] |
Rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss | 0.2–0.4 day−1 [50] | 0.08–0.4 day−1 [53], [54] | ||
Brown trout, Salmo trutta | 0.01–0.05 day−1 [50] | 0.05–0.34 day−1 [55], [56] | ||
Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha | 0.01–0.05 day−1 [50] | 0.2–4.4 day−1 [57] | ||
Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus | 0.2–0.3 day−1 [50] | 0.2–9.1 day−1 [58], [59] | ||
Channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus | 0.01–1.0 day−1 [38] | 2.3–19.7 day−1 [60] | ||
Zebra fish, Danio rerio | 0.2–0.4 day−1 [51] | 15–200 day−1 [61] | ||
S. marcescens | 2.4–6 day−1 [62] | Drosophila melanogaster | 0.002–1.0 day−1 [63] | 11–41 day−1 [64] |
In the fish host reproduction rates, the number of eggs produced per kg during a year, average weight range of mature fish and survival rate of eggs to fry has been taken into account.
